Tenets of Deism

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This article is about a document detailing tenets of deism. However, I cannot find any information regarding the author, its publication date, or even its existence. The article does not cite any sources and appears to be original research. Article does not appear to pass WP:V.  TN ‑ X - Man  15:40, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - per this link, "While there are no “official” tenets of Deism, many of the following “unofficial” tenets might be the best way to introduce generally accepted beliefs within Deism." - A google search provides several pages that refer to the tenets as a set of ideas or beliefs, and not a singular document. - Adolphus79 (talk) 15:52, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. This article appears to be about a document but there's no information given with which to identify that document.  The article specifically disavows its relationship with Deism and appears to be entirely original research without any references or sources.   I'd also suggest WP:FRINGE is applicable here.  An investigation of the article's history is informative; it suggests that the article's creator feels that the article is somehow untouchable, may feel that he still retains copyright in spite of the GFDL license, invokes semi-protection without having actually requested or having been granted that status, and in general bolsters the idea that this is some kind of personal essay.   This article was speedied once and SALT may well be required.  Accounting4Taste: talk 18:31, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
